Lady Antebellum - Lay Our Flowers Down

[Verse 1]
Candle wax, like a river on the concrete
Fears will fly if you let them
Patterned-leather dress, shoes on a baby's feet
Is he too young to tell him

[Chorus]
People come and gather round
Only love can lift us now
We find our common thread
Over tear-stained ground
Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down

[Verse 2]
White knuckles, cotton beads on a rosary
Hoping one has an answer
You hung it on the mirror only as a novelty
But now you squeeze it 'til your hands hurt

[Chorus]
People come and gather round
Only love can lift us now
We find our common thread
Over tear-stained ground
Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down

Oh, lay 'em down

[Bridge]
Another bad sign, another hard time
[?] you can't ignore
This ain't the first time
This ain't the last time
Trouble's flying at your door

[Chorus]
People come, people come
Oh, people come and gather round
Only love can lift us now
Only love can lift us now
We find our common thread
Over tear-stained ground
Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down
Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down
(Raise our voices up)
Raise our voices up, lay our flowers down

[Outro]
Oh, lay 'em down
